Rear Window Defogger System does not Operate: Procedure
- CHECK REAR WINDOW DEFOGGER SYSTEM
- Turn the window defogger switch on.
- Check that the operation sound of the DEF relay is heard.
OK
Relay operating sound is heard.
NG → See step 5
OK: Go to next step
- CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (REAR WINDOW DEFOGGER WIRE - INSTRUMENT PANEL J/B)
- Disconnect the P6 rear window defogger wire and 2F instrument panel junction block connectors.
- Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Resistance
Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition P6-1 - 2F-2 Always Below 1 Ω P6-1 - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher
NG → REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR
OK: Go to next step
- CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (REAR WINDOW DEFOGGER WIRE BATTERY POSITIVE)
- Reconnect the 2F instrument panel junction block connector.
- Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Voltage
Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition P6-1 - Body ground Ignition switch ON 11 to 14 V
NG → See step 12
OK: Go to next step
- CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (REAR WINDOW DEFOGGER WIRE CONNECTOR - BODY GROUND)
- Disconnect the P7 rear window defogger wire connector.
- Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Resistance
Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition P7-1 - Body ground Always Below 1 Ω
NG → REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR
OK → REPAIR OR REPLACE REAR WINDOW DEFOGGER WIRE
- INSPECT FUSES (ECU-IG NO. 2, HTR-IG)
- Remove the ECU-IG NO. 2 and HTR-IG fuses from the instrument panel junction block.
- Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Resistance
Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition ECU-IG NO. 2 fuse Always Below 1 Ω HTR-IG fuse Always Below 1 Ω
NG → REPLACE FUSES (ECU-IG NO. 2, HTR-IG)
OK: Go to next step
- CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (IG1 RELAY POWER SOURCE)
- Disconnect the 2F instrument panel junction block connector.
- Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Voltage
Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition 2F-3 - Body ground Ignition switch ON 11 to 14 V
NG → REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR
OK: Go to next step
- CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (INSTRUMENT PANEL JUNCTION BLOCK - BATTERY)
- Reconnect the 2F instrument panel junction block connector.
- Disconnect the 2G instrument panel junction block connector.
- Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Voltage
Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition 2G-1 - Body ground Always 11 to 14 V
NG → REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR
OK: Go to next step
- CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (REAR WINDOW DEFOGGER SWITCH - INSTRUMENT PANEL J/B)
- Disconnect the E75 heater control (blower switch) connector.
- Disconnect the 2Q instrument panel junction block connector.
- Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Resistance
Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition E75-2 (RDEF) - 2Q-12 Always Below 1 Ω E75-3 (IG+) - 2Q-10 Always Below 1 Ω E75-2 (RDEF) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher E75-3 (IG+) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher
NG → REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR
OK: Go to next step
- CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (HEATER CONTROL (BLOWER SWITCH) - BATTERY POSITIVE)
- Reconnect the 2G and 2Q instrument panel junction block connectors.
- Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Voltage
Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition E75-2 (RDEF) - Body ground Ignition switch ON 11 to 14 V E75-3 (IG+) - Body ground Ignition switch ON 11 to 14 V
NG → See step 12
OK: Go to next step
- CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (HEATER CONTROL (BLOWER SWITCH) - BODY GROUND)
- Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
